‘’Here Today Gone Tomorrow''

Life is like a vapor, it dissipates after hitting the atmosphere

and is no more. As we greet each day, the result often is

never known. Twenty four hours in a day, seven days in a week

and three hundred and sixty five days in a year not counting leap

year. Here today gone tomorrow, many of the friends and family members are no longer above ground. Life’s expectancy

today is 81.2 years of age for females and 76.4 for males. 2 Peter 3:8 But beloved, be not ignorant of one thing, that one

day with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. God is not slack concerning his promises. We need not fret weather being around at the parting of the eastern sky on the return of our Lord and savior, he promised to never leave

us or forsake us. Living out life expectancy and beyond an achievement every person would like to achieve, be it that isn’t the case we still get to pass time with him in eternity, for those who’s relationship has come into agreement with the request made according to the word of God.

Lets focus on living life as God has presented it to us, according to his word and the rest will take care of itself. Day by day and from year to year.

You have a great foundation here. I liked the way you explained it. You made me stop and think and that's always a good thing. When quoting anything, make sure you use quotation marks and reference the translation if quoting the Bible. Ask someone to read your entry aloud before submitting. If she stumbles, you might need to rephrase some lines. Also having someone proof it for you to pick up little things like hyphens in numbers like twenty-four and whether instead of weather. (I think you meant whether, but I had a hard time totally understanding what you were trying to say and a good proofreader could help sort that out.) Be careful about using general terms too like every body wants to achieve... I'd bet that some aren't looking forward to living too long. Something as little as that can make a huge difference. Perhaps instead, use the first person: As I greet each day... I need not fret... I want to achieve... Using the first person can also make it a more intimate experience for the reader. Also remember to use semicolons instead of commas if separating two complete phrases that could each be a complete sentence on its own. I enjoyed your message. You have an artistic way of painting with poetry. You nailed the topic in a great way. Your message is a important one and really touched my heart. Good job.
